Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to deal with in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel can lead to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases rather quickly.

Be aware that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to an automobile parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

What a quality night's sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Sunday and I was en route to help an elder lovely lady who had put petrol in her diesel spotless Ford Club Wagon in Portishead. I'd been told she had left the petrol station forecourt and stranded on a rural lane along the way to visit her godchildren. I plugged the location straight into the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour. I got to the car and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she explained, "Now I'm becoming rather forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle using diesel as I had only purchased it a week back right after my old one, which I had for over thirty years, eventually died on me". I got the drain done and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a lovely Somerset woman!

I'd had a wonderful evening hiking on my afternoon off and felt cheerful the following morning as I set off to aid a new family vacationing in Portishead. They conked out after adding diesel in their mate's Jeep Wrangler, and were close to an hour's drive away. I arrived at their location and smiled while I listened to the lady berating her hubby for actually being so confused. "Just how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this situation happens quite frequently in Somerset and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to get worried about, and yet he still got an ear bashing by his better half. Poor boy. Anyways, I extracted the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching while they drove away I waved goodbye and wondered what her indoors would ask me in the event that I made the same mistake... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
• Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VA receipt.
3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
